16 / 32-channel network video recorder — 16 built-in PoE ports (30 W/port, 150 W total), four SATA bays with RAID 1/5, Ultra 265 compression, records cameras up to 16MP, with onboard Smart by NVR Face/Vehicle Detection and AcuSearch/AcuTrack AI search.
Sample quantities are welcome — testing one or two units first is the normal way to start.
The Uniview NVR504-B-P-IQ Series is a 16-port PoE, 4-HDD network video recorder offered in two sizes: NVR504-16B-P16-IQ (16-ch) and NVR504-32B-P16-IQ (32-ch), with 16 built-in PoE ports on both models (30 W per port, 150 W total budget, IEEE 802.3at/af). Both record cameras up to 16MP with Ultra 265 / H.265 / H.264 compression, output independently over HDMI (up to 4K) and VGA, and support RAID 1/5 disk redundancy across four SATA bays each up to 24 TB. Onboard Smart by NVR processing (Face Detection, Face Comparison, Smart Intrusion Prevention, Ultra Motion Detection) works with AcuSearch, AcuTrack and Face/Vehicle search, and the local interface is available in 38 languages including Spanish (Latin America), Portuguese (Brazil) and French.
Plain-language guide for buyers and installers — based only on what this recorder actually does.
For corporate buyers: we support submitting the purchase order to Uniview under your company's real name — your company appears on the official order, so the origin of the goods can be verified directly with the manufacturer. Just provide your company name and pay by corporate bank transfer. Models carrying the anti-counterfeit label can also be self-verified on Uniview's official Anti-Counterfeiting Query page — enter the unit's SN plus the scratch-off code.
For small and mid-size orders, we deliver directly to your designated forwarder's warehouse in China (EXW / FOB Guangzhou). From hand-over onward, international shipping and destination-side arrangements are handled by your forwarder — the way you already work.
Complete list from the official datasheet.
Two real capabilities that define this series: built-in 16-port PoE and onboard Smart by NVR AI search.
16 independent PoE ports deliver up to 30 W per port (150 W total budget, IEEE 802.3at/af) — cameras get power and data over one cable, and most 16-camera installs skip a separate PoE switch entirely.
Smart by NVR runs Face Detection, Face Comparison, Smart Intrusion Prevention and Ultra Motion Detection on the recorder itself (up to 8-ch with a Uniview Face Detection camera, or 2-ch with an ordinary camera), feeding AcuSearch, AcuTrack, Face Snapshot Search and a 25,000-picture Vehicle Picture Library.
